Even before that, you need to check for defects in your new home.. to be rectified before shifting in.

For us, we are putting TV at the last of the priorities. We are considering to get projector instead.

Anyway now seems like a good time to bulk buy these appliances with the comex going on

I bought a projector kind of TV from Taobao. Can watch TV via website/PC.
